Coverages in this program include:

Coverage For Injury Or Damage That You Cause To Someone Else (BI & PD)

Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability Coverage covers your legal liability for an accident where there is damage or injury for someone else up to the limit of liability you select. Your insurance company pays for the cost to replace or repair damaged property, the medical bills and wage loss incurred by an injured person, and other damages you are legally obligated to pay as result of an accident.

Coverage For Damage To Or Theft Of Your Boat/Personal Watercraft (Comprehensive & Collision)

Comprehensive and Collision Coverage covers the cost to repair or replace your watercraft if it is stolen or damaged in an accident, no matter who is at fault. You share in this cost by paying a deductible. Under Collision Coverage, your insurance company pays for damage caused when you collide with another vehicle or object. Under Comprehensive Coverage, your insurance company pays for damage caused by an event other than collision, such as fire, theft, or vandalism.

Coverage For Injuries Caused By An Uninsured Boater (optional coverage)

Uninsured Boater Bodily Injury Coverage pays for medical treatment, wage loss, and other damages you would have received from the other person's insurance company, had they been insured. (This coverage is not offered for personal watercraft policies.)

Coverage For Your Injuries (Medical Payments, optional coverage)

Medical Payments Coverage covers the cost of necessary medical care provided to you as a result of a boating accident and applies no matter who is at fault. The coverage covers persons in your boat, named policy holder for personal watercraft, and is the only coverage on the policy that will pay for injuries caused while water-skiing. The coverage is often limited to medical care you get in the first one, two, or three years after the accident and is limited to a specific dollar amount. In some states, this coverage only applies after other medical insurance is exhausted.

Total Loss Replacement Cost (optional coverage)

This coverage is available for new boats purchased within the preceding 13 months. We'll replace total losses with the latest model or, if not available, a comparable model. If you elect not to replace the watercraft, we will pay the rating base amount.

On-Water Towing and Labor (optional coverage)

This pays for towing and labor costs up to $300 per occurrence. The labor coverage applies when it is performed at the time and place of the disablement, while the watercraft is in the water.
